Rangers To Activate Tyler Mahle On Friday
"The Rangers will activate Tyler Mahle from the 60-day injured list for Friday's series opener against the Marlins. He is listed as the probable starter against a yet to be announced pitcher for Miami. Texas has a full 40-man roster and will need to designate someone for assignment or transfer one of Marcus Semien, Nathan Eovaldi or Sam Haggerty to the 60-day injured list."
"He landed on the injured list in the middle of June and was diagnosed with a rotator cuff strain a few weeks later. Mahle was shut down entirely for a few weeks and went over two months without getting into a game. He began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Round Rock in the beginning of September. He was bombed for five runs in an inning during his first appearance. He has since reeled off 6 1/3 scoreless frames with nine punchouts and three hits."
Tyler Mahle will be activated from the 60-day injured list to start Friday's series opener against the Marlins and is listed as the probable starter. Texas has a full 40-man roster and must designate someone for assignment or transfer Marcus Semien, Nathan Eovaldi, or Sam Haggerty to the 60-day injured list. Mahle returns from a three-month rotator cuff strain after landing on the injured list in mid-June, undergoing a shutdown and a rehab assignment at Triple-A Round Rock. He allowed five runs in his first rehab outing but then totaled 6 1/3 scoreless innings with nine strikeouts. He will make two season-ending starts and his return is unlikely to alter the Rangers' playoff chances.
